Polly Pocket Out of Sight Campsite Compact

May 7, 2019 Megann Zabel

It’s ANOTHER Polly Pocket post! This time we have a cute compact with a camping theme. Shani packed up her gear to go camping with her telescope, campfire stove, and first aid kit. Inside the compact is a tent that folds down to reveal her sleeping bag and inner tent arrangement. There is also a camp fire on the bottom portion of the compact. I like that the folding tent can act as a storage place for tiny items. However, like most of these new Polly Pocket compacts, I have found that getting all the little tiny pieces into the compact and shutting it can be a problem. I’m an adult and it feels like a tiny frustrating puzzle to shove everything inside just right. The camp stove also leans to one side since one leg is a little uneven compared to the others.

Well, the tent makes this one a winner for me. I was at a big box store recently and spotted a tiny artist set that looked super fun, too. Should I go for more or get back to dolly designs? ;)

Polly Pocket Teeny Boppin' Concert Compact

The BlueBird Polly Pockets were some of my favorite toys when I was younger. Those tiny dolls had such cute miniature sets in their little compacts. Polly Pocket has had a new makeover recently and this time it’s much closer to the BlueBird size. The dolls are quite a bit smaller than other versions Mattel Polly Pockets I’ve seen. The compact is back with lots of tiny accessories. The new dolls are not as small as the BlueBird Polly Pockets, but they come pretty close. I also appreciate all the details.

The set pictured is the Polly Pocket Teeny Boppin’ Concert Compact. It comes with a doll, guitar, working guitar case, microphone on stand, compact, and ring to attach to the compact. The doll’s name Shani. The compact has a set with a piano and drums. I noticed that parts of Shani are rubbery, like the legs and head, and some parts are hard plastic. It seemed like BlueBird sets were painted plastic, but a lot of the new ones have stickers (like on the guitar and in the compact’s background).

Overall, I think I like the new Polly Pocket dolls quite a bit. I picked up a few more not too long ago and I’ll try to post them soon. There are a few larger play sets, but I think I am going to stick to the really tiny compacts.

On another note, I’m still working on patterns and new outfits, mostly for Minifee and Momoko. Things are slow going with small kiddos in the house.
